migrante: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que "migrante" engloba a "emigrantes" e "inmigrantes". [...] A este respecto, cabe señalar que el sustantivo "emigrante" pone el foco en la persona que abandona su hogar, mientras que "inmigrante" hace referencia a esa misma persona, pero desde la perspectiva de quien ya ha llegado a su nuevo destino para radicarse en él.
